It has not been `7-bit clean' either, though RFC 1036 or RFC 822 does
not prohibit the use of any control characters in body.

Most of Japanese believe ESCs should pass since their use in Usenet
articles is not explicitly prohibited, though I doubt if it must be
true.

In respect to this problem, it might be good to use some MIME
encoding, but the ESC convention used in Japan predates MIME and many
programs are not prepared to handle such an encoding yet:-(.

I am not sure if it is necessary to modify INN, but I believe INN and
the latest C News is already 8-bit clean.

BTW, I prefer C News to INN since I am familier with the C News
administration and since my system is getting a very limited feed just 
for my needs.  Should I switch to INN?

inews package conflicts with domestic convention

1996-10-12 Thread Kazuhiro Sasayama
I found Debian inews package conflicts with Japanese domestic
convention about news articles.  We have embedded raw ESCs without any
special encodings into articles to write Japanese, and the inews
package is programmed to strip these ESCs silently.  So I finally
removed the package and switched to the normal C News inews.

I wish it would be `fixed' in the future.

You can setenv XAUTHORITY to your $HOME/.Xauthority or something.
Since the super user can read any file, you should be able to connect
to your server while you switch to root.
